C# - How To Impersonate Another User
Feb 17, 2010
I'm working on an ASP.net app and i'm trying to impersonate a user
I'm creating a windowsIdentity with a token
WindowsIdentity winId = new WindowsIdenty( token );
this token was got by calling the un managed code
[DllImport("advapi32.dll")]
public static extern int LogonUserA(String lpszUserName,
String lpszDomain,
String lpszPassword,
int dwLogonType,
int dwLogonProvider,
ref IntPtr phToken);
is there any other way to get a token without using this advapi32.dll unmanaged code?

I'm using WCF services ensuring that UserName/Password must be provided for each request. I need use same service from many clients, but I need impersonate the call to access the appropriate resources for each client. When I call the service directly from the client there is no problem, because I use for each client a pair UserName/Password defined in theirs web.config. The problem came when I need to call a second Web service from a call to the first-one using the same identity. This second Web service requires UserName/Password, but I only know who is the caller (UserName) but not the password.
How I can impersonate this second call without knowing the password for the corresponding username?
EDIT: The app (Web App and Services) is running in a shared hosting environment where I can't use Windows Authentication to configure Kerberos for Delegation. I have defined a UserNameValidator to process on each call the pair UserName/Password against a custom SQLServer database. Moreover, the intended customers of this app will use it from Internet, without requiring a windows account, that is because I need a more flexible, SQL-based, authentication schema.

I have identity impersonate = true in the Web.config file. I have integrated security = true in the DB connection string in the Web.config file.Before identity impersonate was true,users were able to access the DB through the web service account (seemingly).Now I get an error which says " Login failed for ... " because I am aware there is no specific account for that user in the permissions for that DB instance.I needed to set identity impersonate = true because the web service does not have access to the Active Directory,which I need to retrieve certain user information.
My question is,does identity impersonate = true override the integrated security and attempt to user the authenticated user's account to connect to the DB? Is there a simple way to prevent this in the Web.config itself?If not,would programatically impersonating the user within the Active Directory query functions and setting identity impersonate = false do the trick here?

I have an ASP.NET application that requires impersonation as an administrator user. In web.config:
<identity impersonate="true" userName="administrator" password="password"/>
The customer complained about saving the password in clear text format. Is there a way to save the password here as hashed?

I'm using IIS Express to host my website, and I would like to do something similar to Directory Security in IIS 6. In IIS 6, I was able to go to the Directory Security tab and allow the anonymous user to be a local windows account.
Is there something equivalent in IIS Express for that? What changes do I need to make in applicationhost.config?

Im deploying my website onto my new server (windows 2003) from my local pc (windows 7) and my local homeserver (windows 2008) and have run in to a issue.
I have a process that starts up with the below code. It is passed a video file which gets converted.
System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo StartInfo = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo(Command, Parameters);
Them problem I have is on my new windows 2003 server it fails to work. No error or anything. Looking at the server and its taskmgr.exe I see the Process start but nothing happens.
Looking into it, everyone seems to say I need to have impersonate="true" in the webconfig which I do have, I currently have it set to the Administrator account which I use to log into remote desktop (I assume this is fine???)
<identity impersonate="true" userName="Administrator" password="********" />
This still doesn't work.. Looking in the taskmgr.exe the process is started with the username ="NETWORK SERVICE" ...

I have a webpage stored on a local server (Site A) which when I browse to it is given my windows account details, this site then checks within AD to get my email address. My email address is then passed to another website (Site B) and consumed. The Website A is set in IIS to Integrated Windows Auth Only, WebSite A has
<identity impersonate="false"/>
set in the web.config What I dont understand is what user is accessing AD from site A - with impersonate = false that is telling the site not impersonate the windows user, but this seems at odds with the setting in IIS.

I have a ASP.Net website that interacts with Dynamic CRM. It's also uses a local ASPNETDB.MDF for forms authentication. For the CRM I need to impersonate the identity created on the domain for this purpose. When identity impersonate is enabled I no longer have access to the local Membership Database. How can I allow the domain user used for the impersonation access to the membership database?

I have a web application using Kerberos to access an external resource useing ASP.NET 3.5 and IIS.
When a user connects with the application, Kerberos authentication auto-magically allows me to connect to external resources acting as the user using delegation. This was not easy to do. It is nice, but I've a problem. Sometimes I need to connect to an external resource using an account with more rights than the user. The service account which the app-pool is running under has the addition rights I need. How can I remove the user's Kerberos identification and connect with Kerberos using the service account running the application pool?
UPDATE
I'm not sure why I am getting no responses at all. I've never seen that before. post questions, they may clarify the problem (to me too).

I don't think I understand fully how ASP.NET does inheritance of controls.I have a user control, ucBase, which has an asp.net label in the ascx file. Code behind references the label and it works fine during run time if the control is not a parent for another user parent.
If I have another user control, ucChild, inheriting from ucBase, the label in ucBase's code is always null. ucChild has no controls in its ascx fileThe server controls (like the label) needs to be declared in the ascx file and not created programmatically.What needs to be done for ucBase to see its own controls when it's a parent user control?

I'm trying to allow logged user who are in department XYZ to perform some task for my third party App. I have two SQL tables named Users & UserList. The third party app (GoldMine) graps the USERNAME from the Users table and store it as UserID which I then referecnce SessionID. The UserList table has two columns (GM_UserName & Department) which I'm interested in. When a user login into the 3rd party app (GoldMine), i then compare the USERNAME (from Users table) to GM_UserName (from UserList table) and see whether GM_UserName is in = 'Dept XYZ'. Take a look at the SQL query below.
sqlDept = "SELECT USERNAME FROM Users LEFT JOIN UserList ON UserList.GM_UserName=Users.UserName WHERE UserList.Department ='Dept XYZ'"
I'm able to do this.
If Session("Userid") = "TestUser1" Or Session("UserID") = "TestUser2" Then Do this Else Do that End If
BUT unable to do this...
If user's Department = 'Department XYZ' Then
Do This
Else
Do that
End IF

By using <%: Page.User.Identity.Name %> on the Site.Master page I can display the userid of the logged in user.
I would like to use this value and display other information about the user that is stored in a User table in a MsSQL database, like:
<%: GetFirstname(Page.User.Identity.Name) %>
